Entering the cedar-lined drive to 1462 Lake Road conveys a sense of privacy, elegance, and tranquility. Stepping into the front foyer, your eyes are drawn through the home to the captivating "through-the-house" view that frames the waters of Lake Champlain and the Adirondack Mountains. On the lakeside deck and expansive lawn, the grandeur of the setting unfolds. The view stretches across the Lake accessing miles of open water, the softly blinking lighthouse on Barber Point to the spectacular sunsets.
Encompassing approximately 4,100 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, the residence blends timeless sophistication with exceptional comfort. The stunning living room, highlighted by 12’+ ceilings, two fireplaces and a wall of west facing glass doors serves as the heart of the home. A spacious kitchen flows seamlessly into a welcoming breakfast and family room, creating an inviting gathering space for family and guests alike. The elegant primary suite offers a peaceful retreat, while a remarkably well-designed guest wing features two identical two-bedroom guest suites, providing privacy and comfort for visitors. A second-floor office or overflow guest area offers additional flexibility for work, creativity, or accommodations.
The outdoor living experience is equally impressive. On one side of the residence, beautifully curated gardens provide a tranquil setting filled with seasonal color and texture. On the other, a gunite swimming pool creates a resort-like atmosphere for relaxation and entertaining. Additional amenities include a greenhouse, pool house, and thoughtfully maintained grounds that enhance both the beauty and functionality of this extraordinary waterfront estate.
The nearly 17 acres with extensive frontage along Lake Champlain along with the remarkable 4100 sq’, 5 bedroom, 4 1/2 bath residence offers a rare combination of refined living, unparalleled privacy, and one of Vermont's spectacular waterfront settings all within an easy 20 to 30 minute drive of Middlebury and Vergennes for shopping, hospital, restaurants, theater, golf and other resources. A beautifully built, impeccably maintained, waterfront estate prepared for the next generation.
